I have recently written a tutorial on how to create the look of a nebula in space, in fused glass hearts. The tutorial has "taken off" - many people want to try this so I am providing a link below.
A nebula is a cloud of gas and dust in space, created in different ways; often the most stunning colours appear, and no two seem to be the same. Here are a few gorgeous photo examples from Google:
and here is my latest, slightly larger heart - many people use a heart-shaped muffin mould, which gives 9 smaller hearts, as in the photo at the top, or a ceramic mould with up to 12 hearts in it. This was from a mould with two different shapes of heart:
Fun to create, beautiful to capture, experimenting means it's been a wild ride so far! And I am not finished yet, other ideas to try.
If you have a kiln and glass and want to join the fun: nebula hearts tutorial
All you need do is click on the link in blue to send the payment of £15 ($19.50) and paypal will tell me...at which point I send you the tutorial to your email provided by paypal. You will receive schedules for firing in the tutorial. You will get a 17 page pdf, which gives you all the instructions you will need, with loads of step by step photos to follow. (I find videos fascinating to watch, but impossible to remember! ) It is fun and gratifying!
